INTRODUCTION
Build a safer world with us, one incident at a time. Ambient.ai is the category creator and leader in Agentic Physical Security. Powered by Ambient Pulsar, the first reasoning Vision-Language Model purpose-built for physical security, our platform seamlessly integrates with existing security cameras and physical access control systems to unify monitoring, access control, threat assessment, response, and investigations through an always-on reasoning layer that augments security operators with superhuman capabilities. The results: 95% fewer false alarms, investigations 20x faster, and 10x faster response. The momentum speaks for itself: we doubled new ARR in FY26, and have delivered results for world-class customers including Cisco, ServiceNow, SentinelOne, Bayer, and Adobe. That kind of momentum creates an environment where great people thrive, and it shows: we recently ranked #71 out of 500 on the Forbes best startup employers list. Founded in 2017 and backed by Andreessen Horowitz and Allegion Ventures, Ambient.ai is on a fast-paced journey to fulfill our mission: prevent every security incident possible. Ready to learn more?

Mid Level Full-stack Software Engineer Jobs: Frequently Asked Questions
How do I get a mid level full-stack software engineer job?
Position yourself around ownership, not just task completion. Highlight features or systems you built from design through deployment, decisions you made without close supervision, and any mentoring you have done. Tailor your resume to show both frontend and backend depth, and be ready to discuss trade-offs you navigated in past projects. Concrete outcomes matter more than the tools you listed.
Which companies hire mid level full-stack software engineers?
Companies hiring mid level full-stack software engineers right now include Rippling, Plaid, and Oscar Health, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. Hiring at this level comes from a wide range of employers, including growth-stage startups that need engineers who can ship independently and large enterprises backfilling experienced contributors on product teams.
Are there remote mid level full-stack software engineer jobs?
Yes, remote and hybrid roles are common at this level. About 29% of mid level full-stack software engineer openings are remote or hybrid as of November 2026, reflecting how widely distributed engineering teams have become. Mid level engineers are often preferred for remote roles because employers expect them to work with less day-to-day guidance than junior hires.
How do I move up to a mid level full-stack software engineer role?
The move from entry level to mid level comes from building depth and ownership over time. Focus on completing full features independently, learning both sides of the stack well enough to make confident trade-offs, and seeking out projects where you can drive something from start to finish. Consistent delivery, measurable impact, and a pattern of needing less guidance are what employers look for when promoting or hiring at this level.
Which industries hire the most mid level full-stack software engineers?
Mid Level full-stack software engineer roles concentrate in Technology & Software, Manufacturing, and Consulting & Professional Services, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. These sectors tend to run product teams that need engineers who can own features across the full stack without requiring constant senior oversight, making mid level candidates a strong operational fit.
